Your not catching me, I cannot get anything with CGminer to work properly, no detection of hardware or nothing and command line arguments are not recognized at all so I gave up on it. BFG Miner seems to run better so I just went with it.

Below are screen shots of my virtual machine running the miners:

The problem I am having is I keep getting way to many stale shares, and I don't know how to fix the problem.

I also want to add, none of this command stuff "--set-device antminer:clock=x0781" works, I don't know why but all that set-device stuff just crashes the window cause the command isn't recognized. I gave up on running it in linux all together cause it doesn't matter if I have cgminer, or bfgminer or how many tutorials I go through in the past 2 months, it doesn't compile, or it's missing files, or doesn't see any of the ASIC's when they are clearly there after typing lsusb and see them listed. So I'm running it in windows 7 64 bit and it seems to be somewhat improving my results.

Also, for some reason, my Antminers are running at 1.25 Ghps instead of 1.6 so I'm also at a loss to that

So you tried to run your miners with cgminer, failed, went back to bgfminer and that didn't work neither? I'm not sure what you're trying to accomplish - but if you want to mine with bfgminer again - try this:

Ok, I'm having a problem with this stale share non-sense. I'm using 3 antminers and 9 erupters and for the longest time, they were working fine with bfgminter. I then tried to make cgminer work (because no matter what I did, I couldn't make it work for the life of me in my VMware window) since I came across some instructions when I bought more antminers, but I gave up on it again cause I still couldn't make it work. I then loaded up bfgminer again to continue where I left off only to find out, I'm getting nothing but stale work. I figured the problem would go away on its own, but it's not. My dsl isn't that laggy nor do I believe there is anything wrong with bitminter.com so the problem has to be software. Any idea's what I can do to make this problem go away?
